Hello everyone, in my livingroom: - the walls of the house are from 1920 - an old Singer sewing machine with foot pedal model 66 around 1930 (serial number C1849607, made in Wittenberge) - an old Agfa Box 50 from around 1950 (with 120 roll film for 6×9 cm photo negatives) - the old wooden furniture doesn't have a date on it... regards,
Nice. The square lump is a piece of Pen Y Fan, the Welsh mountain. Ask her if that’s older,as I ain’t a geologist.
I have some vinyl records that are older than me, but if you took those out, then yes, i'm the oldest thing in my room
I am the oldest in this room - but in the wardrobe upstairs there is the Family Bible that my grandparents started when they married in 1891 plus my granddad's microscope from about 1930. Mrs Cunny has some ancient artefacts in her work room (shed) - a stone hand axe and a fossilised reindeer antler which are a bit older than me too. My MGA in the garage probably pre-dates a few of you on here - but unfortunately not me.
Gplan made in high Wycombe - when it was once known as a furniture town - ercol were also based there too.
Loads of water jugs from the 17th century here... The house is like a museum Sent from my ART-L29 using Tapatalk
Part of a collection of odds and ends we’ve picked upon on walks over the years, on the window sill. The stripey grey rock, bottom left, on Ancient Greek pottery from Sicily, came from Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, amongst the oldest rocks on earth, I see Mrs Matty has some too. The fossilised bones came from the beach at Watchet, Somerset, believed to be Plesiosaur, about 200 million years old. Note the rock top left, that seems to have a trainer print in it, apparently that’s the impression of ancient tree bark. Age uncertain, from a beach near Tenby.
DamonW may be right about the glass of water next to me, which knocks everything else out of the park. I think when I looked it up on Google the consensus was all water is at least 4.5 billion years old, probably older than the Sun.
